How to use the wheel
- Type the entries in the box, one per line. The wheel updates as you type.
- Press Spin in the middle of the wheel, or the Spin the wheel button.
- The wheel stops after a few seconds and shows the entry under the pointer at the top.
If you are drawing more than one winner, tick "Remove the winner from the list" so the same name does not come up twice. The last ten results stay listed below.
Is it fair?
Yes. The winner is chosen before the wheel starts turning, using your browser's cryptographic random number generator, which is stronger than ordinary random functions. Every entry has exactly the same chance. The spin itself is only the animation, and the pointer stops at a different spot inside the winning slice each time.
To give an entry a better chance, list it more than once. An entry that appears twice has twice the chance.
Ideas for using it
- Drawing winners in a family Ramadan quiz or a classroom competition.
- Deciding who goes first, or the order of turns in a group presentation.
- Sharing out tasks in a team or at home.
- Choosing between restaurants or places when the discussion runs long.
The wheel is for choosing and for fun, not for betting or gambling.
Is my list saved?
Your list is saved in your browser only, so it is still there when you come back on the same device. The names are not sent to our server and we never see them.
